i am looking for a New Englander that has done an automatic to manual swap on a 1993-1996 Z-28/firebird. i have a 1994 Z-28 that i want to put a 6-speed in and i would like to talk to someone that has done the swap so i can get some advice and see how tough it is/was.

any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks.

Thanks! i am going to look for the parts this winter/spring. other than the obvious stuff, is there any special parts that i would need that are not thought of until part way through the swap.

i am using this site that i found as the basis for the swap (information wise). it has been mentioned here on this site before. he goes through a step by step process for the swap.

i will get in touch with you when i get closer to the date.

any advise for me?

That guide by alex is perfect, you can't go wrong if you follow that, It has been my bible throughout the swap. Follow that and the rest is gravy, Have fun

 

Follow this link and the link i posted later in there, that's everything i had to do.

Hope this helps

 

I wouldn't think there would be much difference if any, but what about on a LS1? I looked everywhere for a 02' 6 speed z28. couldn't find one anywhere. So i'll just make one. I was thinking about purcahsing the t56 from d&d performance. Have you guys heard anything about them?
